A few pictures from a recent truck that came into our shop for a Sinister conversion. Our techs can handle any diesel!

OIL CHANGES

Oil changes may seem mundane, but if your car is maintained correctly that should always be the case.

COOLANT

Improper coolant maintenance can easily cause an engine to overheat, leading to mechanical breakdown and engine failure.

BRAKE CHECK

Brake fluid should be flushed and replaced with new fluid every two years or 20,000 miles.

AIR FILTER

A dirty air filter will deprive the engine of just enough air to hamper performance.

BELTS & HOSES

Hoses are the cooling system's weakest structural component.

SPARK PLUGS

A vehicle that is running rough or misfiring can cause catalytic converter damage.

FLUIDS

We see a lot of problems caused by improper fluid maintenance.

Planetary Gearset

Creates all the gear ratios used by the transmission. Consists of Sun gear, Planet gears and a Ring gear.

Clutch Pack/Bands

With a clutch pack, fluid is applied and the piston engages in order for the transmission to send power to the wheels. Bands fit around the clutch and tighten or loosen to engange and disengage the gears.

Transmission Fliud

Transmission fluid should be checked every time the oil is changed. Low fluid is always an indicator of a leak or malfunction.

Torque Converter

Consisting of a Stator, Impellor and Turbine - the torque converter is a hydrolic fluid coupling that transfers rotating power to a driven load.

Signs of Trouble

If your transmission slips out of gear, suddenly changes RPMs, resists or grinds when changing gears, makes odd noises such as whirring or clunking or is accelerating slowly - it's time to come in!
